Supportive Services for Groups or Individuals

Services at Wishing Well Center focus on four areas of support: End of Life Education, Planning & Counseling, Healthcare/Treatment Advocacy, Grief Support, and Life Coaching. Sessions are available  for individuals as well as groups. 

The Wishing Well Center is a welcoming and safe space to be seen, heard and held, while grappling with deep - and often painful or challenging emotions - that arise while doing this work.

Grief Support

All therapy is ultimately grief work. Being alive means experiencing deep loss and intense grief in multiple capacities. Unfortunately, our western, "doing-focused" culture does not support nor provide space for processing the complex spectrum of emotions we experience while grieving. Carrie’s work focuses on addressing this need.

Honoring grief and learning to live with it requires presence, attention, expression, space, time, patience, and personalized support tools/outlets. Carrie’s one-on-one and group grief support provides an intentional space for others to be present in their grief, while feeling and processing it in a safe and healing environment. This allows clients to create a more balanced and tender relationship with grief in all of its manifestations. This work helps clients to move forward in life more openly and freely, while understanding that one does not “get through” grief, rather, one learns to live with it. Carrie helps clients to identify personalized tools which allow them to meet their grief whenever it arises.   More

End of Life Education, Planning & Counseling

Carrie provides clear authentic information and education about the physical aspects of EOL care, dying, and after-death care options, while providing heart- and soul-centered emotional and spiritual support. With this support, clients are better able to embrace, or surrender to The Mystery with less fear and regret, and more peace and comfort. 

She works with individuals and groups facilitating deep inquiry across five key life domains: Physical, Emotional, Mental, Spiritual, & Practical. The awareness that arises during the inquiry process allows clients to create actionable plans to live fully and deeply in The Present, while gaining peace of mind knowing their End-of-Life plans are in place.

During the final session, clients are presented with their personal Vision Map, a living document and testament to their process.

Heart-centered Healthcare
& Treatment Advocacy

Individuals facing a terminal diagnosis often find themselves swept away in a clinical treatment autopia track, with little room or space to align treatment options with their beliefs, values, or physical/family needs. Carrie works closely with clients and families as they navigate the emotional and clinical complexities of a terminal or EOL diagnosis/prognosis and their current treatment plans. 

With her support, clients have space to process the challenging emotions and grief that arise when the unimaginable becomes the new reality. Through reviews of client medical records and current research findings, deep listening, and inquiry, Carrie helps clients understand the full-spectrum risks and benefits of proposed treatment options, empowering clients to make clear, informed, and conscious healthcare choices that align with their personal values and life goals.  More

Life Coaching

Surrendering to the reality that this life is fleeting, and realizing  that no one is in control of the end, ignites intense awareness that every day counts. Honoring your values and true purpose becomes essential. 

Carrie helps clients explore what this means for them, and what needs to learn, grow, die, change, and evolve to facilitate this change. Carrie invites clients to open the door to Possibility and step into a more connected and inspired self.

Beginning with the end in mind, Carrie helps clients to align with their true life path and bring their dreams to fruition.  More
